I am on something of a grading binge

Like most of you, probably, except for those of you who are done (yay!) or on leave (double yay!). I do my grading on the computer, so my wrist hurts, my eyes are tired, my head is throbbing, and if I hadn't taken a break to go see Slumdog Millionaire (which, by the way, is really fantastic), I think I might be a little crazy. It's so nice during the semester, I'll tell you, to have a seminar that is so packed there is no room for anyone else. The discussions, as I've mentioned on this site, power through any break, spill past the bells, and out in to the hallways. But then it comes time to grade the papers, and I admit that a little part of me wishes the seminar had been a nice medium size with lulls and fits and starts. If it were, I would be done. But instead, I am a little over half way finished with seven more papers to go, and leaving on Monday. Wish me luck.
